WE HAVE A HARTIG'S WOOD BEER CRATE / BOX OF WATERTOWN WISCONSIN. THIS CRATE IS IN VERY GOOD SHAPE VERY SOLID DISPLAY PEICE. ONE SIDE AHS A VERY ROUGH FINISH ON THE WOOD BUT STILL A STRONG STAMP JUST HARDER TO READ AND THE SMOOTHER SIDE IS GREAT. NOTHING ON EITHER OF THE ENDS AND NO LID.

HARTIG'S OPERATED FROM 1884-1947. I WOULD SAY THIS CRATE IS CLOSER TO THE END OF THE BREWERIES OPERATING YEARS. MANY WISCONSIN BREWERIES CLOSED SHORTLY AFTER PROHIBITION FEW SURVIVED AS LONG AS HARTIG'S. THE CLOSEST COMPETITION WOULD HAVE CAME FROM FOX HEAD, EBNER IN FORT ATKINSON, AND PERPLIES IN JEFFERSON. EBNER CLOSED THE SAME YEAR AS HARTIG'S AND PERPLIES CLOSED SHORTLY AFTER IN 1953 WHICH LEFT THE MARKET TO FOX HEAD AND THE BIG DOGS IN MILWAUKEE MILLER, SCHLITZ, BLATZ, AND PABST.
